title: [The 2010 news: highlights of the ASCO-GU, UAE, ASCO, AUA congress…].
abstract: The main news in kidney oncourology are PET CaIX as potential new diagnostic and monitoring tool, the lack of progress in terms of drug combination therapy, the sequential approach remains the standard, lack of progress also in selecting good candidates for immunotherapy, the possible benefit of nephrectomy, that only the CARMENA study will determine, and the emergence of determining the risk of recurrence after nephrectomy using genomic study. Concerning non muscle invasive bladder cancer, endoscopic diagnosis seems improved by the NBI and immunofluorescence. The staging of pT1 tumors may evolve. The poor prognosis of Cis was stressed. The indication of cystectomy for BCG failure has been clarified. For muscle invasive bladder cancer, the prognostic impact of lympho-vascular invasion was reported. The importance of an extended lymphadenectomy has been demonstrated. In cases of symptomatic bone metastases, zoledronic acid increased overall survival. An analysis of performance and drawbacks of radio-hormonotherapy was performed. The denosumab and zoledronic acid were compared in prevention of bone loss during androgen deprivation. The antagonists of LH-RH, the cabazitaxel and immunotherapies could be part of the therapies for advanced prostate cancer. For penile cancer treatment, in case of suspicious nodes, ultrasound guided cytopuncture is useful. For testis cancer, the recurrence rate for stage I seminoma has been estimated, at 15%. The PET-scan is also helpful to assess the nodal tumoral spread during the staging and the follow-up of patients treated by chemotherapy.
